Tagging System for better organsation

Summary

Implement a comprehensive tagging system across all Lamatic resources (flows, test cases, models, integrations, tools, agents, prompts, etc.) to enable better organization, discovery, and management of assets.

Problem

As Lamatic workspaces grow, users struggle with:

Asset Discovery: Difficulty finding specific resources among hundreds of flows, prompts, and tools
Organization: No flexible way to group related resources across different asset types
Project Management: Cannot easily identify all components belonging to a specific project or use case
Collaboration: Teams can't efficiently share and categorize resources
Maintenance: Hard to identify deprecated or experimental assets

Proposed Solution

Introduce a universal tagging system that allows users to apply custom tags to any resource in Lamatic, with advanced filtering and search capabilities.

Core Features

1. Tag Management

Create Tags: Custom tag creation with name and optional color coding
Tag Hierarchy: Support for nested tags (e.g., project:ecommerce, env:production)
Tag Templates: Pre-defined tag sets for common use cases
Tag Suggestions: Auto-suggest tags based on resource names and existing tags

2. Tagging Interface

Multi-select Tagging: Apply multiple tags to single resources
Bulk Tagging: Tag multiple resources simultaneously
Quick Tags: One-click application of frequently used tags
Tag Inheritance: Option to inherit tags from parent resources (e.g., flows inherit from projects)

3. Search & Filtering

Tag-based Search: Find resources by single or multiple tags
Advanced Filters: Combine tags with other filters (type, date, owner)
Saved Searches: Save frequently used tag combinations
Tag Cloud: Visual representation of most-used tags

4. Cross-Resource Organization

Examples of tag usage:
- project:customer-support (flows, prompts, tools, agents)
- env:staging, env:production (test cases, integrations)
- team:marketing, team:engineering (all resource types)
- status:experimental, status:deprecated (any resource)
- priority:high, priority:low (flows, test cases)

🏷️ Manage Tags

│   ├── project:analytics (8 resources)
│   └── project:support (15 resources)
├── 👥 Teams  
│   ├── team:engineering (45 resources)
│   └── team:marketing (23 resources)
└── 🏷️ Status
    ├── status:active (67 resources)
    └── status:deprecated (3 resources)

Enhanced Search

🔍 Search: [tag:project:crm AND tag:team:sales] [🎯 Advanced]
Filters: [All Types ▼] [All Owners ▼] [All Tags ▼]
Results: 12 resources found

Technical Implementation

1. Data Model

Tags Table:
- id, name, color, description, created_by, created_at

Resource_Tags Table:
- resource_id, resource_type, tag_id, created_by, created_at

Tag_Hierarchy Table:
- parent_tag_id, child_tag_id

2. API Endpoints

POST /api/tags - Create new tag
GET /api/tags - List all tags with usage counts
POST /api/resources/{id}/tags - Apply tags to resource
GET /api/resources/search?tags=tag1,tag2 - Search by tags

3. Performance Considerations

Indexing: Optimized database indexes for tag searches
Caching: Cache frequently accessed tag combinations
Pagination: Efficient pagination for large result sets

Benefits

For Individual Users

Quick Discovery: Find resources instantly using meaningful tags
Personal Organization: Create custom categorization systems
Context Switching: Easily switch between different projects or contexts

For Teams

Standardization: Establish consistent tagging conventions
Collaboration: Share and discover team resources efficiently
Project Management: Track all assets associated with specific initiatives

For Organizations

Governance: Implement tagging policies and standards
Resource Management: Identify unused or deprecated assets
Compliance: Tag resources based on data sensitivity or regulatory requirements
